Manufactured in India, supplied in Seoul
Soundproof curtains in Seoul
We manufacture soundproof curtains at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply them into Seoul. Made at our own plant in India and shipped into Incheon, close to the city, so the road leg after the port is short.

We are the manufacturer. There is no local office and we do not claim approvals we do not hold. What you get is factory pricing, one consistent batch across the order, and a straight answer on what the material will and will not do.
01 / Start here
What you are buying, and what it fixes in Seoul
A layered curtain with a mass loaded vinyl core, used where an opening has to stay an opening. It is the answer for a doorway, a stage, a partition that must move, not a substitute for a wall.
Work reaching us from Seoul is mostly apartment towers, offices, studios and content rooms, cafes and dining, clinics, schools.
Reinforced concrete apartment towers with underfloor heating and hard floors. Impact noise between floors is the single biggest residential complaint.
- Full height with return Curtain taken floor to soffit with a side return and an overlap, because the gap is what leaks, not the fabric.
- Track with a seal Ceiling track plus a floor seal or drape, so the perimeter is closed when it is drawn.
- Double layer at a doorway Two curtains with an air gap where a single layer will not reach the target.
- What it will not do A curtain is only as good as its perimeter. Hung short, hung flat against a frame, or with a gap at the side, it will measure nothing like the figure on the sheet.

Thickness, density, NRC by frequency, fire class, standard sizes and build-up detail for soundproof curtains are on the main product page. This page covers what that means for a project in Seoul.
02 / Specification sheet
The numbers, and they do not move by city
These figures are published and they do not move. The thing worth arguing about is not the number on the sheet, it is which grade and which build-up suits the room you are treating.

On a Seoul job with a consultant involved, our part is material that matches the submitted data. See working with acoustic consultants.
03 / On the ground
What decides the build-up in Seoul
- Content rooms everywhere
Studios, streaming rooms and practice spaces inside residential and commercial towers. Isolation from the building is what makes them usable.
- It is the floor, not the wall
Impact noise from above dominates complaints in this city. The fix goes under the finish before the finish goes down, not on the ceiling afterwards.
- Dense, vertical, mixed use
Cafes and venues sit underneath homes in the same structure, so containment decides trading hours.
- Incheon is close
A short road leg after the port keeps landed cost and dates predictable.
- The housing stock
Reinforced concrete apartment towers with underfloor heating and hard floors. Impact noise between floors is the single biggest residential complaint.
- The studio and content scene
A very large music and content industry with rooms built inside commercial buildings to measured targets.
We would rather argue about the build-up at design stage than on site. See how we support architects.
04 / Climate and durability
Durability in Seoul, before acoustics is discussed
Seoul is hot summers, mild winters and a distinct wet season, and that narrows the sensible material list before acoustics is even discussed.
PET felt handles the wet months without absorbing moisture or feeding mould. Timber and wood wool want a ventilated cavity and a stable indoor RH.
The risk we design against here is wet-season humidity behind linings.
If the visual is fixed and the room still has to perform, that is a solvable problem and a conversation worth having early. See how we work with interior designers.
05 / Logistics
Supply into Seoul, start to site
| Ships from | Palwal, Haryana, India |
|---|---|
| Arrives at | Incheon, then a short road run into Seoul |
| Dispatch | 4 to 7 working days |
| Freight | Sea via Incheon |
| Packing | Rolled and bagged with track and fixings listed separately. |
| Lead time | Made to size. Confirmed at quote. |
Standard items dispatch in 4 to 7 working days. Grooved panels and custom colours take longer, and we say so before you order, not after.
Sea freight into Incheon, then a short road run into Seoul. Air freight for samples and urgent quantities.
The same 5 piece minimum applies on export.
| Any size | 5 pieces |

Curtains are made to size, so the minimum is counted in pieces rather than area.

Where this goes wrong, said plainly
-
The wrong product for the problem
A curtain is only as good as its perimeter. Hung short, hung flat against a frame, or with a gap at the side, it will measure nothing like the figure on the sheet. We quote the detail, not just the fabric.
-
A number chased without a measurement
If nobody has measured the room or set a target, the specification is a guess with a decimal point in it. We will ask for the target before we quote the quantity.
-
Local approvals that nobody actually holds
We hold no Seoul certification and we will not borrow one. The test data we publish is ours, and we will send the reports rather than describe them.
Seoul: questions we are actually asked
Is there a Seoul factory behind this product?
No, and we will not say otherwise. We manufacture at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply into Seoul as the manufacturer rather than through a dealer. Made at our own plant in India and shipped into Incheon, close to the city, so the road leg after the port is short. You buy at factory prices with one consistent batch across the order.
What decides the specification for a Seoul project?
Impact noise from above dominates complaints in this city. The fix goes under the finish before the finish goes down, not on the ceiling afterwards. Studios, streaming rooms and practice spaces inside residential and commercial towers. Isolation from the building is what makes them usable. Those two things move the build-up far more than the panel figure does.
Will this material last in the Seoul climate?
Seoul is hot summers, mild winters and a distinct wet season. PET felt handles the wet months without absorbing moisture or feeding mould. Timber and wood wool want a ventilated cavity and a stable indoor RH. The failure we design against here is wet-season humidity behind linings.
What is the delivery time into Seoul?
ships from: Palwal, Haryana, India, arrives at: Incheon, then a short road run into Seoul, dispatch: 4 to 7 working days. Standard items dispatch in 4 to 7 working days. Grooved panels and custom colours take longer, and we say so before you order, not after.
What will soundproof curtains not do?
A curtain is only as good as its perimeter. Hung short, hung flat against a frame, or with a gap at the side, it will measure nothing like the figure on the sheet. We quote the detail, not just the fabric.
How is the order packed and what is the minimum?
The same 5 piece minimum applies on export. Any size, 5 pieces. Curtains are made to size, so the minimum is counted in pieces rather than area. Rolled and bagged with track and fixings listed separately.

Send a plan and a section, get a real build-up
One drawing gets you a proper answer. Build-up, quantities, a delivered date, and an honest note on anything we think is the wrong approach.
